This issue doesn't happen when using the default toolchain directory /opt/poky/, but only happens with a relocated directory.

Hi RP:

Would you please help me to take a look at this:

This is because the perl's @INC value is compiled into the binary, and we can't change it when install the SDK, the @INC's value is /opt/xxxx which is set when comile, but our SDK is relocatable now, there is a solution is set the PERLLIB or PERL5LIB in the "environment-setup-*", I tested it on openSUSE 12.1, got another error: "can't find libssp.so.0", I export the LD_LIBRARY_PATH as a quick workaround, the it worked well except there are several warnings:

/home/lyang1/testsdk/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/usr/share/automake-1.12/am/ltlibrary.am: warning: 'libipq.la': linking libtool libraries using a non-POSIX

What do you think about export the "PERLLIB" or "PERL5LIB" to fix this problem? I will find a correct way to fix the "libssp.so.0" issue.

perl-native already has a call:

create_wrapper ${D}${bindir}/perl PERL5LIB='$PERL5LIB:${STAGING_LIBDIR}/perl/${PV}:${STAGING_LIBDIR}/perl/'

Perhaps we should add this for nativesdk too?

Hi RP:

Yes, we should use a wrapper for the nativesdk-perl, and it does have other problems as you had pointed out:-).

1) The perl's Fcntl.so (and others) needs libssp.so.0 (stack-protector) which is in the SDK, but it can't find it. Laurentiu is working on this now.

2) After workaround the libssp.so issue, when run "autoreconf", there is an error if the host's perl's version is not the same as the one in the SDK, the error says that the executable perl mismatches the perl lib's version, this is because most of the autotools' scripts use the "#!/usr/bin/perl -w" which is host perl, but the gnu-configize uses "#! /usr/bin/env perl" which invokes the perl wrapper in the SDK, and the wrapper will set the PERL5LIB to the SDK which causes the mismatch. We can make all the perl scripts to use the host perl or the SDK perl to fix this problem. I prefer to use the host's perl since there are 10 perl scripts (maybe not very accurate) use "#! /usr/bin/perl -w", but only 2 use "#!/bin/env perl", but if we make all these scripts use the host perl, then it seems that we don't need the nativesdk-perl any more.

3) There is another problem is that we only install the perl modules (pm), but doesn't install some corresponding shared libraries (so), for example the "Data::Dumper" which is needed by the autotools, we have installed the usr/lib/perl/5.14.2/Data/Dumper.pm, but didn't install the usr/lib/perl/5.14.2/auto/Data/Dumper/Dumper.so, so it doesn work.

The nativesdk would work correctly after fix all the above issues, I think that 
another solution is removing the nativesdk-perl.

Laurentiu,

Is the patch merged? If so, please update the bug. thx

Yes, Laurentiu's patch has been merged, but it still needs another two patches which I'm working on.

This has nothing to do with the relocation or adt. On the test machine, the
`LC_ALL'  is unset, warning can be removed if the following lines are added
to `~/.bashrc':
...
export LC_ALL=C
...

This has nothing to do with the relocation or adt. It's an automake 1.12 
issue, well known over internet. autoreconf can be run if the following
lines are added to configure.ac:
...
m4_pattern_allow([AM_PROG_AR])
    AM_PROG_AR
...

Maybe we should ignore the previous warnings.

If there is not other error, maybe we should close it.

verified as per last comment.
I will open another bug which will cover the additional warnings that I found.
